try sudo dpkg -i path_to_deb_file – sagarchalise Oct 25 '11 at 9:30
you've got two screenshots that are the same. What is this deb file and where have you downloaded it from? Its complaining about permissions - from a terminal, what permissions have you got on the file? What happens if you sudo dpkg -i [filename] the file? – fossfreedom♦ Oct 25 '11 at 9:32
pkg-deb: file looks like it might be an archive which has been dpkg-deb: corrupted by being downloaded in ASCII mode dpkg-deb: error: `sav-1.0.11-19.i386.deb' is not a debian format archive dpkg: error processing sav-1.0.11-19.i386.deb (--install): subprocess dpkg-deb --control returned error exit status 2 Errors were encountered while processing: sav-1.0.11-19.i386.deb – Deepak Rajput Oct 25 '11 at 10:21
